While the drum continues to beat for Man made Global Warming some are keeping their eye on the sun.

The sun has been expected to switch from Cycle 23 to Cycle 24 but 23 was slow to end and 24 has been even slower to start.

Why is this a concern? Dispite all the hype, the human population can survive a few degrees of warming better than a few degrees of cooling.

The Vikings lived on Greenland during a "warm" period.

The Sporer Minimum lends support to this opinion.

Might be time to invest in a snowblower company.
